Due to a mix of various different reasons (including feedback) I have known for a while that I have to change my opening to a daytime sequence instead of a nighttime sequence because of the camera lighting. This would mean I would have to re-write the storyline for my openning. Callum Hurley is a student in my media class who needs another person to join him to become a group so that he can act in his film instead of operating the camera. Callum and I have decided to merge to form a small two man group, I will operate the camera and compose/create/supply the music for his opening sequence.
Callum has written the storyline and created an animatic, rough cuts and storyboard. He has created his own music for the opening sequence but said he would prefer it if I could supply him with my own original composition. Callum and I will now work together to create an opening sequence which I can now have during the day and he can act it, and I can still keep the music I have worked on for my film. We both will edit the final opening sequence. He said that my music was more suitable because "It very much fits the action/sci-fi genre and works well with the atmosphere I'm trying to create. You music is better to use because it's more proffesional and my music was simple and didn't set a mood whereas yours makes you feel something when you're watching it."
It is better for me to use a daytime sequence because, mainly, the lighting in a nighttime sequence is difficult to see and it doesn't have as proffesional a look to it as a well filmed, well lit daytime sequence. I have looked at the storyboard and animatic with callum and have decided that, instead of the original low angle medium shot, there should be a new first shot which is a camera pan following callum as he walks past the camera which follows him and eventually pans up and tilts to show a church.
